Hm, this pretty much has to be some kind of memory leak. Will investigate

Tested over a dozen builds and it still happens

How about the last stable release, v1.12.3? Did it happen there? If no, that gives us a starting point and trying halfway between the working and broken would help identify.

Just tested ppsspp-v1.12.3-1467-g6f4ec0fc4-android and it still happen.

[unknownbrackets]

That contains almost all the changes in v1.13.x. That means it's v1.12.3 plus 1467 changes. v1.13.0 was v.12.3 plus 1469 changes, so that's virtually the same as testing v1.13.0.

Alright so I went all the way down to ppsspp-v1.12.2-9-g11b65ca22-android and got the game running for 15 minutes without any crashes. I hope this helps.

[hrydgard]

So now we know the error is between -9 and -1467. How about trying one right in the middle? That will halve the range. And once you find if it broke before or after, you can split the new range in the middle too. If you keep doing this, you'll find the problem in 10 tries..

[jimkage]

Alright heres the last working version: ppsspp-v1.12.3-8-gc75784351-android from ppsspp-v1.12.3-10-g1cd520ae3-android onwards it starts crashing.

[hrydgard]

Huh, surprised it's that early in the sequence. but if it is, it is.

Now, looking at the list of builds, from 8 to 9, this is the difference: #15013 (just a translation, cannot possibly be the cause)

And from 9 to 10 (for some reason there are two 10), these make up the difference: 7d00b6c, 258a96a. The first one is the only one that's even remotely possibly the cause, but don't see how it can cause a memory leak, nor any other kind of long-running-caused crash.

Strange...

[hrydgard]

I believe that this is the same as #15788 , which is fixed now.

Can you please test with the latest builds @jimkage ?

[ghost]

Cannot reproduce this crash in theater.

[hrydgard]

For testing purposes, likely the bug and the fix only affect Android 12+ devices.

Anyway, I'm gonna close. Let's re-open if we hear about this again.
